Patricia Dietz

Patricia Joann Dietz, born January 16, 1942, went to her heavenly home on February 11, 2019 at the age of 77. Patricia spent over 30 years dedicated to her banking career. She was always a hard worker and never stopped, both on the job and at home. Her greatest pleasures in life came from time enjoying her family and friends who she loved so selflessly. She found great joy in making every holiday and special occasion memorable for her family; and she was always there for you in your time of need. She enjoyed bowling, golf, poker, travel, her beloved dogs and caring for her flowers and plants. She loved life and lived it to the fullest. Patricia was a kind, gracious, loving woman, and her smile lit up the room. She spent the last year of her life valiantly battling lung cancer and never complained about anything. Most of her battle was for the sake of her family, not for herself; gracious and selfless to the end. She will be dearly missed.

Patricia was preceded in death by her parents, Lawrence and Hazel Hays; sisters Phyllis and Tudy; and brother, Larry. She is survived by her loving husband, Robert D. Dietz; children, Lori VanDeWalle and husband Danny, Linda Dietz and Heather Cash, Cathy Smierciak, and Robert Dietz Jr. and wife Debbi; nine grandchildren (in birth order) Abbi Malish, Micah Harst, Jaclyn Harst, Chelsea Mireles, Jessica Malish, Kyle VanDeWalle, Mikayla VanDeWalle, Jordyn Dietz and Austen Dietz; seven great-grandchildren (in birth order) Olivia Harst, Eisley Mireles, Damien Mireles, Benjamin, Copeland Sprouse, Genesis Schumacher, Rowen Mireles; her sister Tara Reed and husband Roy and other loving family members including nephews, nieces and cousins.

A visitation will be held on Friday, February 15, 2019 from 6:00PM-9:00PM at Schertz Funeral Home. The Funeral Service will be on Saturday, February 16, 2019 at 9:00AM at St. Paul Evangelical Church with internment to follow at Sunset Memorial Park.
